Sunset at Piha Beach

The westcoast of New Zealand is harsh. Yet, Piha Beach close to Auckland is a popular tourist magnet and surfing spot. The magic of this place lay in the combination of strong rolling waves and the rugged landscape that gives this place its distinct look. When the sun is setting, even a wild place like this comes to some peace and when you are patient you can watch the sea birds flying beyond the horizon. Beyond the horizon, this is where Australia can be found.
